The GRAMS study objectives are to assess the musculoskeletal changes that occur after weight loss using GLP-1 based therapy. A lifestyle intervention with diet and exercise is included to assess any mitigating effects are provided, versus a control group with regular exercise and diet.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two different types of nerve blocks in patients undergoing surgery for primary Total Knee Arthroplasty. The main question aim to answer is: \- is there a benefit in functional muscle power output of the leg? Participants will be randomized into either …
On February 17th, 2021, the FDA officially approved the use of the first patient-specific 3D-printed talar implant for compassionate use. This is a patient-specific talar spacer designed to completely replace the talus for the treatment of talar avascular necrosis. The implant represents an alternative to other surgical procedures that allows …
This research study aims to evaluate injectional pain at the site of needle insertion for corticosteroid injections (CSI) of the upper extremity depending on different modes of anesthetics. Each individual's perception of pain upon receiving a CSI with two out of three modes of anesthesia (control/no anesthesia, vibrational anesthesia, vapo-coolant …
The goal of this prospective observational quality improvement study is to determine if a physician tool, MedSafer, combined with educational brochures for patients, can help to reduce the use of 'potentially inappropriate medications' (PIMs) in adults aged 60 and over with rheumatic conditions and polypharmacy (taking 5 or more regular …
Osteoarthritis (OA) and inflammatory conditions of the tendons and joints of the shoulder, elbow, hand, and wrist are common yet disabling diseases. Standard management utilizes conservative measures to minimize pain and improve function. Conservative pharmacological management commonly includes corticosteroid and ketorolac injections which have been well investigated as a modality …
This study will be a non-randomized, ambidirectional (retrospective and prospective) study where all subjects will be followed prospectively. The study will evaluate the survivorship of the RAS acetabular component in a previously failed total hip arthroplasty (THA) in a consecutive series of subjects who meet the eligibility criteria.
Randomized, controlled, single center observational study to compare the safety and performance of navigation-assisted OrthoPilot Elite and robotic-assisted MAKO total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The aim of the study is the comparison of the clinical outcome between navigated and robotic-assisted TKA. The hypothesis of the study is that both treatments achieve …
The purpose of this PMCF study is to demonstrate the accuracy of navigation using the new pheno4uTKA Level 1 software for OrthoPilot Elite® and to evaluate its safety and performance. Patient-related outcome measures (PROM) will be acquired to investigate functional outcome and patient satisfaction.
Background Most people who are referred to the EMG (Electromyography) Section of the NIH are enrolled into specific active studies. This allows researchers to learn about a range of rare neuromuscular disorders. But study criteria may not give researchers the chance to evaluate a single person or study a common …
